Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 4 of Psalms. Psalm 4 develops an evening prayer in which the psalmist responds to those who pursue falsehood and seek to replace trust in God with vanity. The initial expression of distress gives way to an exhortation to fear the Lord, examine the heart, and offer righteous sacrifices. The conclusion is especially significant: the joy God grants surpasses the security associated with material abundance and enables the psalmist to sleep in peace.

Erkennet doch, daß der HERR seine Heiligen wunderbar führt; der HERR hört, wenn ich ihn anrufe.
Temblad, y no pequéis: Conversad en vuestro corazón sobre vuestra cama, y desistid. (Selah.)
Tiemblen y no pequen; mediten en su corazón sobre sus camas y guarden silencio. Selah.
Tremblez, et ne péchez point; Parlez en vos coeurs sur votre couche, puis taisez-vous. -Pause.
Tremate, e non peccate; Ragionate nel cuor vostro, sopra i vostri letti, e restate. Sela.
Perturbai-vos e não pequeis; falai com o vosso coração sobre a vossa cama, e calai-vos. (Selá.)
應當畏懼,不可犯罪; 在床上的時候,要心裏思想,並要安靜。(細拉)
